Best Fluffy Pancakes

Recipe from cafedelites.com

˅

Prepare the Pancake Batter

Notes: The batter will be thick and creamy. If you find the batter too thick, fold in a couple of tablespoons of extra milk at a time until reaching the desired consistency. For fluffier pancakes, you can add 1/8 of a teaspoon of baking soda for every cup of flour, but if you're sensitive to the taste, leave it out.

Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose or plain flour

1/4 cup granulated sugar or sweetener

4 teaspoons baking powder

1/4 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 3/4 cups milk

1/4 cup butter, melted and slightly cooled

2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

1 large egg

Instructions

Combine the flour, sugar (or sweetener), baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl.

Make a well in the centre and add the milk, slightly cooled melted butter, vanilla, and egg.

Use a wire whisk to whisk the wet ingredients together first, then slowly fold them into the dry ingredients.

Mix until smooth, though a few lumps are okay.

Set the batter aside to rest while you heat your pan or griddle.

Cook and Serve

Notes: For equal-sized pancakes, use a ¼ cup measuring cup to pour your batter.

Ingredients

Butter, for greasing the pan

Instructions

Heat a nonstick pan or griddle over low-medium heat and wipe over with a little butter to lightly grease it.

Pour ¼ cup of batter onto the pan and spread it out gently into a round shape with the back of your ladle or measuring cup.

When the underside is golden and bubbles begin to appear on the surface, flip with a spatula and cook until the other side is golden.

Repeat with the remaining batter.

Serve with honey, maple syrup, fruit, ice cream, or frozen yoghurt, or enjoy plain.
